  1. Hello Cassandra and welcome! I can tell you that this forum is full of the most helpful people I've never met! Ha! I have friends all around the world because of FISD, like Greg (wook1138) and Daniel (TheSwede) just to name two! Never met them but they were instrumental in me getting my armour done and approved! I just did my 12th troop today and it was a blast. 

     

    Research, read build threads and ask lots of questions. We are here to help you.

    I have a pyle pro with an Iphone (Trooper talk.)  Any thoughts on just using the neck strap that comes with the speaker? For those of you that use Troopertalk, where do you keep your phone?   

     

    Thank you.

    I rigged up a hard "pocket" next to my amp on the inside of the chest. I string the cable out the top of the armour, plug in the phone and get the app going when I need it. Then I just drop it into the "pocket". This keeps the phone dry on hot troops. I don't want my iPhone wet.

  3. I had my 5th troop today. Toronto Alzheimer's Walk for Memories. 2,000+ people. At one point while posing for a photo, an older lady in a wheelchair reached up and took my hand. I'm not sure she even realized a photo was being taken. I knew she was the reason we were there. Glad I had my bucket on. My grandmother died from Alzheimer's so this event meant a lot to me. Wow. What a privilege to be a part of this.

  4. Thank you very much Andrew and Tony. Thanks for the dressing comments. My belt wasn't as tight in these photos and I questioned myself about this gap at the ab/kidney. Won't do that again...plus losing that Christmas weight will help too ;-) . The shoulder elastic has stretched a little due to the inexpensive elastic I originally used and will be replaced before my next troop on Saturday. That, I promise.

  5. "Will this never end?" C-3PO. Yes, it will never end. So far I want to do a Sandtrooper and a Praetorian Guard. Oh, and a Death Star Gunner and a Biker Scout... Um, that's not what you mean, is it? That sniper knee! Dang it! I love the AP armour but the knee is, by far, the weakest link. It needs a re-sculpt to fit the shin. We have what we have to work with. The AP sniper knee has been approved many times before. You, Greg, are more than capable of doing this. It is frustrating but doable. I am going downstairs now to take a pic of my approved sniper knee. Be with you shortly...
